If you travel to Bangkok,  spending a day or two in Pattaya is a great option. It's a short drive from Bangkok, and there are plenty of public transportation to take you straight from Bangkok to Pattaya.

Here are the activities that you might wanna check out for your next trip to Pattaya.

Nongnooch Tropical Botanical Garden 

This is a huge garden with lots of Instagrammable photo opportunities! Nong Nooch Garden offers a variety of activities with its beautiful landscape, flowers and trees stretching to the horizon.

 U Jomtien Pattaya

Wouldn't you just love to wake up to the view of the tranquil ocean, the sound of the gentle waves, and the smell of the sea breeze? I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Read my review here 


U Jomtien offers all rooms with a sea view! The rooftop bar is amazing and very relaxing, with the open view of the ocean.

​It's literally steps away from the beach where you can soak up the sun. This is totally my top choice when I travel to Pattaya.

Rooms tend to get fully booked fast, so make sure to reserve early
